Different Causes and Treatments of Paresthesia!
… Continued …
For example, if it is caused by problems of blood vessel – controlling blood pressure and cholesterol as close to normal as possible can be one of the major concerns. If diabetes is to blame, controlling blood sugar is a must to help relieve paresthesia.
If it is caused by lack of certain nutrient (such as vitamin B-12 deficiency), dietary changes to restore the deficiency along with a few lifestyle adjustments would help provide a relief. Exercise, stress management, and getting adequate rest /sleep are also worth a try for anyone, no matter what causes the problem.
However, it’s not always easy to find the exact cause of paresthesia since there are a wide range of diseases and disorders that can factor into the problem.
So, don’t make a conclusion on your own – if you in doubt to any symptom, see your GP or doctor promptly to find the diagnosis of your problem clearly!
I get a burning, tingly stinging sensation on my back, (upper) with a almost throbbing tense discomfort back of my legs, just at the top below my buttocks. Its only when I’m fighting a bad cold. Generally its before the cold gets bad, (like at the start of a cold, but I know its going to be a long lasting one, and bad when I do get this burning skin feeling) I don’t always get it before I;m going to get sick tho. And longest its lasted is two days. The touch of my clothes on my skin is the worst. if I where to just take them off and stand naked without anything touching my skin its not as bad. Light touch is when it burns and tingles the worst, hard touch no. Would this also be a form of parethesia. I’ve talked to Dr’s in the past about this, and they look at me like I’m crazy.
I have chronic paresthesia on my entire right side due to a traumatic brain injury to the left side of my brain and its driving me crazy. Gabapentin had no effect so I’m wondering if Lyrica or some other drug would help me
